⚡️CIPR 2026: Who are the women shaping the “New Code”? Meet the speakers of the OKA Agency session
This May, Nizhny Novgorod will host CIPR 2026, Russia’s premier technology and digital economy forum — a flagship event bringing together leaders in innovation, business, media, and public policy.
As part of the program, the OKA Agency will present its own featured plenary session:
“Women of the New Code: Soft Power in the Age of Change"
Today, we are proud to introduce the remarkable women who will take the stage.
Five women. Five extraordinary journeys. Five distinct perspectives on leadership, resilience, and global change. Some left their former lives overseas to build a future in Russia. Others have become trusted bridges between international entrepreneurs and new opportunities. And some are actively reshaping how the world sees modern Russia — with honesty, courage, and authenticity.
